III
Dr. Lord raised himself up on his toes. His sandy eyebrows1 climbed right up his forehead till theynearly got merged2 in his hair.
He said in surprise:
“So she’s conked out—eh?”
“Yes, Doctor.”
On Nurse O’Brien’s tongue exact details were tingling3 to be uttered, but with stern disciplineshe waited.
Peter Lord said thoughtfully:
“Conked out?”
He stood for a moment thinking, then he said sharply:
“Get me some boiling water.”
Nurse O’Brien was surprised and mystified, but true to the spirit of hospital training, hers not toreason why. If a doctor had told her to go and get the skin of an alligator4 she would havemurmured automatically, “Yes, Doctor,” and glided5 obediently from the room to tackle theproblem.
